Soulmate (Completed) 18+

Part 18

**Earth's POV**

Why does my boss hate me so much?...

This morning he asked me to make a soup for some special clients that were suppose to come in during the afternoon so I spent 2 hours working on it exactly like the recipe told me to and once it was done I needed him to taste it. 

Except the moment he ladled the soup and tried it he took the spoon and flung it at me causing my uniform to get covered in soup... Than he took all my hard work and poured it down the drain saying I didn't put enough salt into it. 

He could have just put in what it needed instead of destroying all of my hard work...

On top of that he told me that I wasn't good enough to cook today so he is making me wait tables. Yes I use to be a waiter for a few years but that doesnt mean they should be aloud to transfer my position in the restaurant how ever they want to.

Sadly I need this job, especially if I want to be able to get into the restaurant I want to go to. I can't afford to get fired or quit. 

I really need this job...

Thankfully I had an extra uniform in the back and Fluke helped me clean myself up. To make things a little better too most of my customers were kind and patient with me as I tried to learn all of the ropes in the matter of minutes. 

The only strange person I met was this guy with a short beard who sat in the corner and made me come back 3 times before I could take his order and he told me he wanted to talk to me about something and than changed his mind and ordered something simple off the front of the menu. 

It was strange...

Other than that things have been a little better than this morning. There's only 30 minutes until my lunch break and I really just want to relax and maybe walk over to the park across the street to get some fresh air. 

I've been avoiding my boss at all costs and Fluke has been helping me with that too. 

Fluke is an amazing friend...

Just two more years and I can leave this place. I just really hope everything will be okay by than too. 

Since I found out about Santa I havent been able to eat or sleep like I use to. I try my best to pretend like everything is okay when he's around but it's really hard to do whenever I see his face. I just want to curl into his arms and beg him to only love me but I  can't do that. 

As long as he stays by my side I can be happy, I just hope he doesn't do this forever...

Fluke: I was leaning against one of the counters in the back as I wait for my orders food to come out. "How are you feeling?"

Earth: He rubs my back before pulling out some silverware to wrap. "I'm doing okay I guess, just a little tired."

Fluke: He rests his hands on the counter before looking at me with concern. "That's not what I meant Earth. How are you feeling? Today has been rough on you and it's okay if you want to go home after your lunch break. I can work for you for the rest of the day. You've been back for one day since the weekend and you look like your going to fall over if someone blows on you."

Earth: I was a little shocked that he could see all of that with the few hours I've been here. "No it's okay, I can take it. Maybe he's just trying to toughen me up for when I get into the higher class restaurants. I can do this."

Fluke: He stops what he's doing completely and takes the few steps over to me before pressing my cheeks together with his palms. "Stop being so stubborn okay? It's okay to be sad sometimes, I can see that something else is bothering you too. Go home, take a long bath and try to come back tomorrow a little more energized. Whatever is bothering you it cant harm you, you are strong."
